Seems (Thankfully) I over dramatized the ruined paint job, the side I had decided to re spray looked as if it was darker than the other side but as is the norm with Metallic effect paints its shade can be deceptive, so I repainted the hemi's and the waist band.

In the background both sets of external rings are drying after their first coat and the 3.75 his extra neck ring is also drying after its second coat.The 5 Inch extra neck section has been painted and the panelling glued on to conceal the extra extra neck ring, this is the first coat for the panel, I know it isn't looking pretty but a couple more coats will sort that out.

In 2 minds about making a Hoverbout for the 3.75 guy but I don't know this story so may just leave it.

OK metallic Blue is not available till Friday, upwards and onwards, 3.75 has had his extra neck ring fitted, will need to filler the gap and then sand it down and then paint it metallic Blue like the rest of the body work.

luckily 3.75 has been hand painted from a pot of metallic blue so I do not have to wait until Friday to finish him off.

Napoleon called us a nation of shopkeepers....he wouldn't have said it if he had met the bloke in my local model shop.... He has not even ordered the paint I need spouting..there's not much call for that colour.

So the Time controller has now been re sprayed in a slightly lighter Blue and his Slats, Waist Band & Hemi's are in metallic silver. So whilst that is drying I have been doing the measurements for the "Temporal Weapons Dalek".

So, you used a compass to cut the circles? I need to cut a bunch of uniform circles ( or round things) in some plastic for a wall.

Yes I could get the paint from online but the postage usually costs more than the paint, so I try to stay away from this option, Paint by its nature is normally sent by courier hence the higher postage.

These are my Circular cutting tools.

The Blue and Yellow item is the actual cutting compass, the calliper I use to measure the circle or if the circles are smaller I have the Stencil (Green plastic)There are other cutting devices out there, it all depends what thickness material you are using.

Have caught up with the painting, eventually went with "French Blue" as I have seen on Deviantart a lighter Blue Time Controller.On the far left is the 3.75 Version still getting its Silver bits painted...the piece on the right is the extra neck ring, I've given it 1 coat and will trim it down to the correct size then give it a second coat before completion...hopefully this time tomorrow.

Well its 24 Hours late but here it is.Have learnt a few lessons whilst doing this project, A/ Get all the parts together before assembly and spray/airbrush them all together that way you will not get the problem that haunted me throughout this project ie different shades of the same colour (That really Wee'd me off)With the extra Neck rings next time I will have 1 Ring complete and cut the other in half and glue on separately. I have seen a controller with 2 extra Neck rings & Mesh so that removes the necessity of a plate between the Neck mesh and Gun Box.

He looks fab!

I've always loved that colour scheme, ever since the old Madam Tussauds Dalek appeared on the back of the Radio Times!
